JACKI’S NEXT ADVENTURE

Expedition to Travel the Length of the Amazon River.

Starting on October 17th 2016

A colourful adventure full of contrasts: sometimes edgy while travelling through deep jungle and mysterious Indian land and vibrant and sociable when mixing with local people on passenger ferries. Leaving from Quito, where the Andes will give way to the Ecuadorian, Peruvian and Brazilian Amazon forest, full of birds, wildlife, flora and fauna but sometimes a moonscape of destruction will be encountered, as the dark side of modern decimation and contamination of the Amazon Basin is witnessed.

The Amazon is the greatest river in the world and one of the longest and this team will be travelling its entire 4,200 miles length; starting at the Chambo as a stream, near Banos in Ecuador to Brazil, where the Amazon River can stretch to nearly 7 miles wide.

The team will study changes on the Amazon River since the early explorers, principally La Condamine, Jean Godin and later Isabela Godin in the 18th century.
